Some time ago the BEE had oc.
caSion TO inform the coIUred peO-
pie of an assertion made by a col.
ored man, who is a clerk in the
Treasury Department and known
as ten per cent mOnev shark. A
few years ago this man stated that
"every Washington woman had her
price" and that he saw none that
he would marry. As a matter of
fact, this individual has always
been 10 the company of ladies or
attempting to persuade some young
Miss to houses of disrepute. A
few days ago, while this money
shark was escorting respectable
young lady out, he requested her
TO call with him at a certain disrep
utable house in th s city, pretend
ing to her that the people were re-
spectacle, and that he had buSi-
ness with them. The lady con
sented, but after her arrival there,
to her surprise and horror the
scoundrel attempted TO take i'm
proper liberties with her, but ow-
ing to the resolute disposition of
the young lady and her threats to
inform her parents, the william
failed to accomplish his purpose.
On the arrival of the lady at her
home, she informed her parents
of what had been done, and had
not the culprit appealed for mercy,

Anacostia, ID. c., June "a, '87.
JAMES M. TRorTER, Esq:
SIR:-As you
lay claim to just dealing, [ merely
drop you a line to call your atten.
tion to facts, not that I expect by
80 doing to change your determi-
nation in the least, for fully be
lieve from the conversation had
with you to-day that the undue
influence | mentioned in my for.
mer letter to you has done its
work, and that, [, on account of
my fathers Republican,sm am to
suffer the consequences; for I have
as yet to hear from you or any
body else that l personally am
complained of, or that fault is
found with my work in the least
up to this date; but on the other
hand you and others have spoken
highly of my work.
Now for the facts: Mr.. Mat
thews retained me in his employ
during his administration of the
Office; when you came in 1 was
furloughed, through your deputy,
on false grounds known to be
fa.se by many who were in the of.
flee at a tine when you were too
unwell to be troubled about busi-
ness; through your friends advice
and common decency on my
part, [ did not bother you
about it; when you were we'll
enough TO do business [ called
your attention to the injustice
done me and you refused to rec
tify the injustice or give me any
encouragement to expect any
thing at your hands; you tell me
that democrats have told you that
my father is a republican and has
made speeches throughout the
country against democracy. You
claim to have the highest respect
for this father in theory; but
practically, [ am made to suffer
for what you claim to respect in
him.
Why was I singled out for
dismissal in the light of the above
facts when your predecessor re-
tanned me during his admiListra.
tion, ought to have been ques-
ton? Why didn't he. (Matthews,,
put Douglass out? The democrat
cy didn't want Douglass out OF
the Recordership, unless they
could put 6 white man in. Keep.
ing me out does not please the
democracy of this District, it does
not hurt my father, nor does it
take one cent Que of your pocket
Or put one in your pocket. Your
expenses are the same. So it
can't be claimed that it was done
on the score of economy. IT ]
were salaried this latter claim may
be justly made. Your manner
and tone at once convinced me to
day that it was useless for me tc
say much, / was doomed in ad-
vance. 1t was perceptible at 8
glance that it was a foregone con-
clususion. Respectfully,

A SIMPLE BARGAIN.

An item in an exchange reads: "a
Canadian firm has taken contract to
irrigate 100000 acres Of land in South
Australia for the compensation Of one
fifth OF the land. One million five
hundred thousand dollars are to be ex-
pended in the work, in twenty years, in
terms Of FIVE years each This is a
very simple method of obtaining means
Of retaining land, apart from the ques-
ton Of whether the company is getting
the best of the bargain or otherwise.
Should other efforts fail in raising the
wind" for watering available lands on
these Islands, perhaps that Canadian
company will make similar bargain
to the above with holders Of waste land
here, 1t is probably the Waterous
Engine Company, of Brantford, On
tario, whose representative, Mr.. Water
Gus, passed through Honolulu for the
Colonies few months ago, which has
